Answer:

c.He grows up to become a police officer

Explanation:

One of the definitions of Irony is: "a state of affairs or an event that seems deliberately contrary to what one expects and is often amusing as a result".

A thief is a criminal. And a criminal who grows up to become a law enforcer is deliberately contrary to what you would expect, most of the times. Therefore, it is an amusing result and it can be considered ironic.
